Cajun Seafood, Seafood restaurant and market in Treme, United States
Cajun Seafood is a restaurant and seafood market in New Orleans that serves cooked dishes and also sells fresh raw seafood at the counter. The open displays show the daily catch, while the kitchen area prepares orders for eating on site or taking home.
The business opened in 1995 and over time expanded to run several locations across the city. It grew into a steady part of the New Orleans seafood scene.
Cajun Seafood reflects how people in New Orleans eat on a daily basis: simply, directly, and with local ingredients. Dishes like crawfish, crabs, and po'boys here are not tourist food but everyday meals for local residents.
No reservation is needed, and the place works well for both a quick sit-down meal and for picking up raw seafood to take home. Guests can walk in and choose directly at the counter without any advance planning.
Guests can pick live seafood caught in the Gulf of Mexico and have it cooked on the spot or take it home raw. This ability to choose directly from the live stock is something most ordinary fish shops do not offer.
